Prism Snapshot
The Snapshot from Prism fits radical aerial thrills in your pocket, your briefcase, or the glove box of your car. Exceptionally fast and hard-pulling in all three sizes, even the diminutive 1.4 will keep you on your toes when the wind picks up. Unlike most parafoil sport kites, the Snapshot sports a tight, responsive turn that feels like driving a finely tuned sports car as compared to a truck; it just feels good carving up the sky.
Smaller than the foils you’d use for kite buggying or kiteboarding, these wings are the ideal intro to power kiting and dual-line control. They’re great for learning the basics because there’s nothing to break when you crash, but you’ll bring your kite everywhere once you get the hang of it because they’re just so much fun. Carefully shaped inlets keep the wing from collapsing in gusty wind, a constant problem with lesser designs, and the elliptical planform with a new airfoil profile minimizes drag for awesome speed and acceleration.
